Pawn Stars: HEATED MOMENTS with Customers

this was an affordable family boat um do you know why because it was a little 17 foot boat no because it was fiberglass no more wood boats wood Boats were moving out yeah fiberglass was coming in school's in session you just got schools sorry this is my problem with it it's like Lipstick On a Pig I mean we have a terrible paint job okay it doesn't have the original motor I realize all the flaws with this boat that's not the point is just the styling and can you even find one the thing is find one but it's still all about making money and there's no money here for me good day folks today we will show you all the moments when customers get angry and disappointed in Pawn Stars in the guitar Market of today a realistic selling price on this instrument would probably be twenty five thousand dollars that's absolutely ridiculous because it's been appraised over the years back in the 90s it was praised at a minimum of a hundred thousand and that was in the 90s I'm just saying from knowing what I've just recently sold myself I don't think anybody's going to step up that high for it well the guitar has been insured for a hundred thousand dollars or better I mean I can insure my shoes for a hundred thousand dollars with an insurance company I understand that but your number's not realistic it's a really rare piece prototypes of Les Paul's at the Les Paul auction did not bring a hundred thousand dollars Les Paul is credited with inventing the solid body electric guitar that's why I'm giving this the 25 000 mark on my eyes can't agree with your assessment oh that yeah we're just at where we are you know it's really cool to see see me's guitar but to be honest with you I'm just kind of glad I got out of there without a black eye he can't know what I know about it after 44 years Julius Caesar's Silver Roman coin a man named Ilya walks into the shop with a portrait coin of Julius Caesar from the month before he got assassinated well I have a coin here it's a portrait point of Julius Caesar from the month before he got assassinated okay this coin is really interesting yeah this is cool yes I think I was actually Caesar in a different lifetime he is interested in selling the coin and believes it to be a key piece for any historical coin collection he hopes to sell it for forty four hundred dollars but is unwilling to accept a lowball offer I'm coming into the shop today because I have a portrait Julius Caesar coin that I want to sell I believe it's a key piece to any historical coin collection I'm hoping to sell it for 4 400 but I absolutely love it so I'm not going to take any Lobo off of her intrigued by the coin and the historical significance it holds after Julius Caesar was assassinated there was a real power vacuum in Rome and it wasn't until Octavius that basically straightened everything out the great thing about this is It's a 2 000 year old coin with Caesar's face on it and I want it however he's not an expert in ancient coins and calls in David an expert to assess his authenticity and value so are you looking to sell it yeah okay how much were you looking to get out of it I won 4 400 please okay um [Music] there's there's a million variables especially with ancient coins and quite frankly I don't know enough I don't know if that's a good price or not do you mind if I have someone look at it sure please David confirms that the coin is genuine and authentic but due to some wear in circulation it is valued at around fifteen hundred dollars so is it real do you mind if I take it out and look at it yeah sure go ahead the strike is perfect the style is correct everything is right okay it's perfectly genuine all right so what do you think it's worth when you get a coin like this there's no shortage of buyers when they are in fantastic condition the very best of these have brought in the neighborhood of two hundred thousand dollars each okay but there's a good amount of wear it's circulated and I think this is worth in a neighborhood of fifteen hundred dollars retail retail okay Ilia is not happy with the price offered and becomes rude expressing that it seems almost ridiculous that someone would sell it that low especially when they know it's history to me it seems almost so ridiculous that somebody would sell it that low especially when they knew its history well I'm basing it what I'm on on what I've seen them sell for yeah in actions in Europe and the United States but the decision is yours thanks for coming all right man uh one last question uh where where can I get these for such low price rotating Barrel rifles a man came to sell two double barrel rotating cap and ball rifles to a pawn shop what is this they're hunting rifles they are a two shot 45 caliber percussion cap these look gnarly these are gnarly the guns are old possibly dating back to the 1850s where did you get these I'm a collector and I uh picked these up in a trade from a guy you can see that the barrels rotate like that so you can load two shots at once bang and then rotate it take your second shot these were developed in I'm guessing 1870. the customer mentions that the gun maker William Hart may have made the guns and that rotating Barrel rifles are pretty rare and hard to come by one of the things that's interesting on these is this is Left-Handed oh okay that's something you rarely see I would think so and by the inlays here I'm guessing that this rifle was built by William Hart who's William you know I know that he was a gun maker in the 1800s but I've not been able to discover too much information on him upon examining the guns Rick realizes that he does not know enough about the guns and decides to call an expert to assess their value rifles are pretty rare and one being left-handed makes it even cooler but when you don't have all the original parts it's difficult to put a value on them what do you want for them I'd like to get two thousand dollars each for them just looking at them you got to admit they're damn cool do you mind if I call someone to look at these things I mean I just don't know enough about them no that would be great I would like to learn more about them myself the expert expresses that the condition of the guns is not good and that they are not original but made out of kits using older and newer Parts these are not old guns out of kits they're making them where you find a lot of old Parts like the lock and the stock and you you make the barrel the metal is really old the trigger guard here has a lot of pitting these were made in the 1830s 1840s so this gun is an assortment of older and newer parts cool he explains that these types of guns were developed around the 1830s when the percussion cap was first introduced well then this piece that says William Hart on it would these have been recycled from the 1830s possibly some of the parts may be from the 1800s but unfortunately these swivel Barrel rifles were made from bits and pieces sometime in the 1900s they weren't made to be collected these guns were made to be shot guns like this have been around since the 1830s but these are not those guns at first the customer was looking for four bread for the pair but at the end Rick paid 1400. I mean they're really really cool and I I do think they'll sell but I mean they are what they are but they do have a coolness to them what's your body [Music] 1500. go to 14 we'll call it a deal uh okay 14.50 1400 bucks thanks deal was finally made but the customer was still angry at the expert for not giving a higher price thank you if I come back it would be interesting to have the same appraisal guy sometimes I'd like to smack him but that's just me 1958 Glastron boat a seller comes with a 1958 Glastron boat that he wants to sell with a boat he wants to sell so Chum and I are gonna go check it out oh no any history on it ah this boat was made in 1958 by a pledgling company named Glastron there's probably only 150 of these boats left Rick and drumley are excited to see the boat as it is a unique and iconic design reminiscent of the famous 1957 Chevy that's neat it was 1958 and everyone loved the style of the 57 Chevy so let's come out with the boat that looks like a 57 Chevy this Chevy 150 they had one paint Scheme they called the black widow normally I don't buy boats they're money pits but this thing is cool it looks just like the 57 Chevy I got for the old man's birthday it's definitely tempting because it's an icon iconic look the seller explains that he has another project in mind and is looking to get ten thousand five hundred dollars for the boat it came down to the pawn shop today to sell my 1958 Glastron C flight I have another project in mind and it happens to be another big fin boat I'd like to get 10 500 for that boat because you couldn't find another boat like that Rick and Chumley inspect the boat and while they appreciate the unique design and style they point out several issues you got all the original chrome and everything seems to be here this was an affordable family boat um but do you know why because it was a little 17 foot boat no because it was fiberglass no more wood boats wood Boats were moving out yeah fiberglass was coming in school's in session you just got schools they noticed that the boat has a poor paint job and is not in its original condition missing the original motor so what do you want to do with it I want to sell it how much did you want for it 10-5 this is my problem with it it's like Lipstick On a Pig I mean we have have a terrible paint job okay it doesn't have the original motor they also mentioned that these bows are difficult to sell and they can't make an offer the seller is disappointed and leaves the shop I realize all the flaws with this boat that's not the point is just the styling and can you even find one the thing is find one but it's still all about making money and there's no money here for me I mean I wish I could do something it's just I don't even want to make an offer there's too much work that's got to be done for me to make anything really okay all right that's fine thanks for bringing it in though man Hudson Bay gorgeous a man walked into the pawn shop claiming to have a rare and valuable item that he wanted to sell came into the pawn shop today to see if I could sell my Hudson bag or Jay Hudson Bay is one of the oldest companies in the world I want to try to get a hundred thousand out of it but I'll have to see what he offers Rick greeted him with a friendly smile and asked what he had brought the men pulled out a small intricately crafted piece of jewelry that he claimed was a Hudson Bay Gorge it made around 1700. I've got a Hudson Bay Gorge Main around the 1700s hey Rick what's up Rick had heard of Hudson Bay gorgeous before but had never seen one in person these go way back in time I mean even the Romans had them it was to defend against a knife thrust or a sore thrust to your neck I know the Hudson Bay Company was one of the oldest companies in North America they were a trade company you know they basically traded with Indians hey old Rick made Pioneer in their shop maybe an hour to wear something like that I don't think that would fit around your head Parker he knew that they were highly sought after by collectors and historians but he was skeptical of the man's claim that this one was worth 100 Grand it looks like it made it might have been a trade piece to the Indians that's Venetian glass and the glass beads is completely normal they had to trade the Indians something for this they didn't want cash they didn't want coins yeah they wanted stuff and how much you want for it for about a hundred thousand you know I don't see that happening Rick noticed that the metal was a strange color and didn't seem to match the description of the Hudson Bay gorgeous he had read about he explains that zinc wasn't isolated until the 1800s and that this gorget can't be from the 1700s because you see this weird a shallow gray patina at the summit yeah okay that tells me right away it's nickel silver okay okay they're right around 20 zinc 20 copper 60 nickel the zinc wasn't isolated really until the 1800s the men looked shocked Rick said that based on his knowledge and experience the gorget was worth significantly less than one hundred thousand dollars he offered the customer one grand for the piece but the customer declined and left the shop disappointed what the are you talking about Sonic you're way out of line I'm basically I'm just trying to tell you I'm not bullied yet I've seen auctions for these things and they generally go for right around 1500 bucks all right I'd offer you a thousand bucks I know you're smoking man but that's not gonna work so I'm gonna take my stuff and leave all right have a nice day Sammy Mosley's blue Gospel Guitar the customer selling this guitar claims that it is a prototype of semi Mosley's personal guitar I'm assuming that's a guitar not just any guitar this is semi Mosley's personal blue Gospel Guitar prototype a Moe's right well Hallelujah the seller claims that the guitar is well known and listed in the celebrity registry and he wants to sell it for one hundred thousand dollars so if this is the actual gospel prototype there will definitely be a market for me to sell this thing how much do you want for it well it's about the rarest prototype guitar that exists at a high energy auction event it would bring somewhere between 200 250 000. I know this is not an auction but realistically I'd take a hundred thousand for it rick hold the expert to verify this piece the guitar expert said that it is well documented and likely dates to 1967 or 68 and confirms it as the Prototype Gospel Guitar it's kind of a pretty well documented guitar there's a couple things I can get a date on this the Mosley tailpiece for one the most right of California on the pickups the style of the knobs I would say this guitar is probably 67 or 68. the serial numbers ga-009 this is the Prototype Gospel Guitar however the expert evaluated it at 25 Grand which made the customer very sad what do you think it's worth well I've seen one of Johnny Ramon's most rights that was very well documented and played guitar went for right around thirty five forty thousand dollars in the guitar Market of today a realistic selling price on this instrument would probably be twenty five thousand dollars that's absolutely ridiculous because it's been appraised over the years uh back in the 90s it was praised at a minimum of a hundred thousand dollars and that was in the 90s I'm just saying from knowing what I've just recently sold myself I don't think anybody's going to step up that high for it well the guitar has been insured for a hundred thousand dollars or better I mean I can ensure my shoes for a hundred thousand dollars with an insurance company I understand that but your number's not realistic the cold sculpture a customer brings a statue to a pawn shop claiming it is a limited edition bronze statue by the French sculptor Emile piccolt from 1888. so uh what can you tell me about this thing it was made in 1888 by the French culture Emil Picard okay Rick it's a quality piece I don't know the sculptor the cold was an artist in France he was born in the 1830s right around 1915. he did a lot of methodological stuff Rick inspects the statue and tells the customer that it is not an original and is likely a replica he points out specific details on the Statue such as a crack on a patina that indicated was recast later the patina looks right what doesn't look right is there's some pity right here and that crack right there is from when they cast it didn't happen later if it's an original the casting will all be right well to be honest I don't know how to respond I believe this was recast probably around 40 50 years ago long after Bacall died the customer becomes defensive and insists that the statue is authentic why would they do that that's just what this is what I'm saying right here you have collection Francais you see this yeah it says made in USA below it this was not made in 1888 the original was made in 1888. I don't believe you okay I mean I just don't see 1800s here it's an American Foundry in the 1950s what you've seen which you can prove is two different stories but Rick stands firm in his assessment and ultimately declines to purchase the item the customer leaves unhappy it's not as old as the state says it is I don't care what you say I don't care what you tell me but I know you're full of you know it's all right Antoine I got it I got it that's just what I say we might be wrong we don't know we're in the business to make money when we don't feel comfortable with something we're going to back off 1995 World Series ring a customer named Terry walks into the pawn shop looking to sell a 1995 Atlanta Braves World Series ring I've got Atlanta Braves 1995 World Series ring oh that's a pretty cool year man team of the 90s got there seven times and then finally won World Series in 95. they're like the Buffalo Bills of the 90s man they just couldn't pull it off Corey and Chumlee were ready to deal with him and evaluate the ring after a brief examination they noticed that the ring was a staff ring which typically sells for less than a player's ring first championship rings were given to the Giants in 1922 when they beat the Yankees the design was pretty basic and only featured one Diamond but by the the 1970s championship rings got flashier with lots and lots of diamonds so it's no big surprise that these things can go for a lot of money you know there's a pretty big difference when it comes from staff to player rings I mean everybody wants a player's ring because it was a bad guy who actually won the World Series Terry was hoping to get 13 Grand for the ring but Corey and Chumley offered him four thousand dollars they wanted to ensure that they were getting the best deal possible so they decided to call in an expert to verify the authenticity and value of the ring you mind if I have a buddy come down and take a look at it how come what what uh I'd like to get the money and get out of here you know right now if you have to hold me to an offer I'm gonna offer you a four grand because it's a staff ring my guy might come in and tell you it's worth a little bit more Ah that's fair okay all right let me give him a call and I'll be right back after a thorough examination the expert confirmed that the ring is just a sample ring unfortunately this isn't even a staff ring this is what they call a Salesman sample they're provided to the team to perform in so they can get a look at the ring see if they like it to prove it and they make them from there we know this based on two main reasons number one the inside of the band and it does not have the Johnson's logo and also it's issued to Turner which is Ted Turner the owner of the team Ted Turner is not a guy that needs to Hawk his ring or sell it to come up with a few quick bucks so there's no doubt that this is what we would call a Salesman sample Terry was shocked to learn that the ring wasn't authentic I was really disappointed they bring some Bozo off the street I don't know where he came from all of a sudden he comes through the door and he's Mr expert on baseball so I don't know I was really disappointed Fred coats pistol the 1884 Colt revolver is believed to have belonged to Fred coats and been used in the range Wars I've got an 1884 Colt that was in the Wyoming range Wars and the book that goes with it there's nothing like a good book after a good shooting that's what I always say the current owner is trying to sell the gun for 55 000 I came here today to sell a gun owned by Fred coats that was intimately involved in the Wyoming range Wars I'm hoping to get 55 000 but I would settle on 45 000 because my mother is the money but the authenticity of the gun's history and its connection to coats needs to be verified by an expert before any sale can be made while it's definitely a cult Single Action Army um it's seen as better days the nickel is worn off you can tell it was in someone's holster every day you know I know what a revolver like this and this shape is worth my problem is I need to find out did this coach guy actually own it so let me get someone down here he'll tell me if it actually belonged to this guy okay I'll be right back Rick called the expert and after examination the expert believed that this is not authentic proof so this looks to be a notarized letter that is giving some of the provenance of the particular piece that was passed down through the Coates family now one of the things that kind of just jumps out at me immediately is this documentation is done in two different ink colors and then this part that directly references the cult is listed in a different ink color so do you think this actually belonged coats basically with with what we have here is it's really hard to make that connection Rick offered him fifteen hundred dollars but he immediately declined the offer I followed the ancestor I've done it all it goes right down I mean it just goes right to Fred coats I know you wanted over 50 Grand but the offer I'd make on it is for a beat up cold Single Action Army so if I give you like 1500 bucks yeah I don't I'm just not gonna be able to do that I think maybe I'll see if I can maybe get some more Providence better luck next time thanks Abraham Lincoln photo Rick has a customer who claims to have a photograph of Abraham Lincoln and his wife Mary Todd yeah I'd like to sell a picture of Mary and Abraham Lincoln from I believe 1863. I thought Abe only took photos by himself what are you talking about oh he's right about that are you jealous Rick has serious doubts about the photograph's authenticity and calls in an expert Maureen to assess it Maureen how's it going good so here we go gorgeous supposed to be Abraham Lincoln and Mary Todd Lincoln yeah I have my doubts okay do you mind if I take a look at it absolutely Maureen examines the photograph and points out several differences between the individuals in the photograph and the real Abraham and Mary such as differences in the shape of their noses eyes and faces this is a really beautiful photograph it's an Amber type as you know an Amber type they enhanced the cheeks and the lips to make them look more lifelike so Abraham Lincoln was a very distinctive looking individual and had a particular style of beard you have to look at everything in the photograph from what they're wearing to what type of picture it is to then what's happening with the face she also uses facial comparison software to compare the photograph to known images of Abraham Lincoln I know why you think this is Abraham Lincoln because he has that sort of gaunt shape to his head but there's another thing we can look at and that is facial comparison software so it actually lays one face on top of the other they have to be the same size every size of them what's that it resizes the heads so because I I use a caliper and I I check the eyes and they're a match Maureen concludes that in her professional opinion the photograph is not of Abraham and married Todd Lincoln but I've been doing this for a really long time okay and a lot of people come to me saying that they have they'll be coming to me in 10 years to honest to God I know you think this is worth a million dollars no you would like it to be worth a million dollars and all I'm saying is it's my opinion that it's not Abraham Lincoln someone's making a mistake so your opinion is it's not real it's not thanks for coming in Rick thanks Maureen for her expertise and informs the customer that this deal will not happen Okay so you heard Marine okay so all right I appreciate it like I said we can agree to disagree yeah thank you very much unbelievably the customer's Behavior towards Maureen was rude and unprofessional but I feel I'm an expert I look for other things besides just face I look at the clothes I look at the background yes I look at everything okay it's not a problem it's your career you have a right to discredit yourself Angel Cruise painting the customer is trying to sell a painting that he believes is the earliest known by Angel Coos an American painter known for painting American Indians I believe this is the earliest known painting by anger house and I think this was painted by him when he was about 12 13 years old okay I know that he did some impressionist paintings you know how to tell the difference between impressionism and post-impressionism no blurry extra blurry the customer wants to sell it for fifty thousand dollars what did you want for it I I was told that it could possibly be worth 75 to 100 000 to the right collector but I I'd be comfortable letting it go for around fifty thousand Rick is skeptical of the authenticity of the painting and will need to verify his history and authenticity before making an offer there might be something here I don't know if it's 50 Grand but there might be something here I have a friend he's coming down anyway so um have him look at it I'll get his opinion and we'll go for there okay when he gets here we'll come and help you out sounds great all right thank you I think when the art appraiser comes in and looks at the painting looks at the paperwork that I have I believe he's gonna say that it is the real deal so he called Brett to discuss the painting after taking a closer look at the painting Brett determined that the painting does need some repairs which will cost around five thousand dollars you know it's in poor condition it would take a lot of restoration just to get this you know to a real marketable State how much would it cost to repair this you'd probably be looking at about five thousand dollars I think if you used a real competent conservator they estimated that once repaired the painting could be worth around twenty thousand and if it was restored what do you think it would be worth to a fine art collector if it was restored it might be because of the name it might be a you know maybe a twenty thousand dollar piece but that's about as much as you can put on it in the end the deal isn't made I know it's not what you want to hear no I mean but if you listen to him you understand what he has to say yeah I totally understand I know you wanted 50 grand for it but I just don't see a deal happening here it's just too difficult for me to sell all right okay have a good one man thank you very much this is where we'll end our video we hope you enjoyed watching it make sure to comment hit
